Definitions
- This invention relates to a method for inspection and fail-safe control of threaded joint tighteing processes as well as an apparatus for carrying out of said method.
- the main object of the invention is to check the torque values and angular positions of the joint against predetermined limits over the main part of the tightening process, thereby enabling premature discovery of faults in the joint that would result in a weaker joint when the tightening is completed or in damage to the parts being joined.
- Other objects of the invention are to provide maximum and minimum limits of a wider fail-safe control range, and high and low limits of a narrower check range embraced by said wider control range, to use the limits of said control range to obtain a primary inspection of the tightening process and/or to accomplish a premature interruption of the tightening process in case the actual torque-angular position values get outside the control range, and to store the actual torque-angular position values and to check them later on against said narrower check range limits.
- FIG. 1 shows a diagram illustrating for a certain type of threaded joint the nominal torque-angular position curve as well as the fail-safe control and check ranges.
- FIG. 2 shows schematically an apparatus for inspection and fail-safe control of threaded joint tightening processes in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 3 shows another apparatus according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 there is illustrated the nominal torque-angular position curve for a threaded joint of the type that is going to be tightened. Previous tightenings of joints of the same type have given material for setting up this nominal curve. The slope of the curve corresponds to the experienced mean value for the joint stiffness, i.e. the nominal torque rate.
- the inspection is started as a predetermined threshold torque level is passed and is continued over the rest of the tightening process. Practically, the inspection is carried out in such a way that a vast number of check points, the spacing of which is determined by the resolution of the angular encoder normally used in these applications, are established along the nominal curve, nd for each of the check points the transitory value of the torque transferred to the joint at the corresponding angular position are compared with predetermined maximum and minimum limit values representing a wider fail-safe control range.
- the tightening will continue until it is completed, i.e. to a predetermined torque value or any other criteria. If there is something seriously wrong with the joint and the fail-safe control range limits are passed, an indication is obtained and the tightening could be automatically interrupted.
- the tightening is completed to the predetermined final torque without any indications.
- the torque-angular position values are stored, and, after the tightening is completed, they are compared with the high and low limit values of a narrower check range, illustrated in dotted-dash lines in FIG. 1.
- the boundaries of the check range may be nonlinear in order to closer follow the actual characteristic of the process. This is particularly useful when tightening a joint beyond the yield point.
- the comparison of the transitory values of the process and the predetermined high and low limits therefore, has to be calculated and requires computer assistance. It is possible not only to obtain information about the high and low limits being passed or not, but also to what extent if they are. The result may be obtained in the form of numbers of curves shown on a screen or on a tape or by other means.
- FIG. 2 there is shown an example of an apparatus by which the inspection of the tightening process may be carried out.
- the apparatus comprises a torque delivering power tool T having built-in sensing and encoding means (not shown) for delivered torque as well as angular displacement for producing an analogue torque signal and a pulse train, in which each pulse corresponds to a specific amount of rotation of the power tool spindle and thereby the fastener e.g. one degree.
- the torque and rotation related signals are delivered via inputs 10 and 11, respectively, to a control unit C.
- the angular displacement sensing means is connected to a pulse counter 12 and a digital-to-analogue, D/A, converter 13. To the D/A convverter there is also connected a set-point potentiometer 14 by which the apparatus is set to the nominal torque rate which corresponds to the joint stiffness which could be expected from the actual joint.
- the control unit C of the apparatus further comprises sections for comparing the acceptable tolerances, which could be either independent of the rotation, ⁇ M + and ⁇ M - , or proportional thereto, ⁇ M% + and ⁇ M% - , or both.
- the independent tolerances ⁇ M + and ⁇ M - are set on potentiometers 15 and 16 respectively, whereas the proportional tolerances ⁇ M% + and ⁇ M% - are set on the potentiometers 17 and 18, respectively.
- the control unit C further comprises an analogue inverter 19 for changing the sign of the offset signal so as to obtain that part of the fail-safe control range that is below the nominal torque rate curve.
- the apparatus comprises two summing amplifiers 20 and 21 by which the actual torque signal is compared with the nominal torque and the offset values added thereto.
- the summing amplifiers 20 and 21 deliver positive or negative signals in response to the control range limits being passed to bistable threshold comparators or flip-flops 22 and 23, respectively.
- the flip-flops 22 and 23 indicate a faulty condition in the joint being tightened by means of indication lamps 24 and 25 and/or initiate ceasing of the tightening process.
- the signal representing the actual torque is subtracted from a sum formed by the nominal torque value and the offset values, and because of that the signal corresponding to the actual torque is given a negative sign in an analogue inverter 26.
- the control unit C does not begin operating until a predetermined torque threshold is reached, and in order to obtain such a threshold the apparatus comprises a set-point potentiometer 27, a detector 28 and a gate 29 to let through the pulse train representing the rotation of the fastener being tightened.
- the threshold detector 28 activates the gate 29. This allows the pulses from the angle encoder to pass through the gate 29 into the pulse counter 12. The sum of pulses in the pulse counter 12 will thereby, at any given moment of time correspond to the angular rotation of the fastener above the threshold torque level.
- This sum represented by a digital number is converted to an analogue signal, corresponding to the expected torque value at the same point of rotation for a nominal or average fastener used in this specific application, by means of the multiplying D/A converter 13, which accepts input values from the pulse counter 12 and multiplying them with a reference signal obtained from the potentiometer 14 which signal corresponds to the average torque-rate of the joint being tightened.
- the summing amplifier 20 a signal corresponding to the difference between the upper fail-safe control values as a function of rotation and the actual torque values at corresponding points of rotation is obtained.
- the output from the summing amplifier 20 corresponds to the difference between the upper fail-safe control limit and the actual torque value applied to the fastener at any given point of rotation after the torque threshold has been reached. If this signal, which is normally positive, goes negative, this means that the actual torque value has exceeded the upper fail-safe control limit and a defective joint is present.
- This change in sign of the signal output from the summing amplifier 20 is detected by a threshold comparator 22, which gives an output signal to indicate that the joint is defective. This signal can be used to drive an indicating lamp 24, or to shut off the nut runner or give any other kind of alarm, e.g. by acoustical means.
- the threshold detector 22 also comprises a memory function so that its output is active until a major system reset signal is received, in order to keep the alarm active, even if the actual torque signal at some later points of rotation goes below the upper fail-safe control limit.
- This summing amplifier 21 accepts inputs comprising: the expected torque signal from the D/A converter 13, a negative fixed offset signal ⁇ M - , obtained from the set-point potentiometer 16, a negative offset signal ⁇ M% - , corresponding to the expected torque values, obtained by changing the sign of the output from the D/A converter 13 by means of the analogue inverter 19 and feeding this signal to the set-point potentiometer 18 the output of which is fed to amplifier 21 and the actual torque value with a changed sign.
- the output from the summing amplifier 21 will then correspond to the difference between the lower fail-safe control range and the actual torque values obtained from the fastener being tightened at any given point of rotation. For a normal joint this signal will always be negative. If the actual torque value should fall below the lower control range, the output from the summing amplifier 21 goes positive and this change will cause the threshold detector 23 to give an output causing alarms and/or shut-off of the nut runner as mentioned above.
- FIG. 3 there is shown another embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention.
- this apparatus comprises a torque delivering tool, like a nut runner T and a control unit C.
- the nut runner T comprises torque sensing and signal delivering means as well as a rotation reponsive pulse generator.
- the signal and pulses obtained thereby are fed into the control unit C' via inputs 31 and 32, respectively.
- the control unit C' comprises a D/A converter 33 connected to input 32, a memory 34 and a computing unit 35.
- the computing unit 35 communicates with the memory 34 via a databus 36 and an address bus 37.
- the memory 34 also communicates with a pulse counter 38 which in turn is connected to the input 31 via a gate 39. The latter is arranged to let through angle pulses when receiving an opening signal from a threshold detector 40 which is connected to a set-point potentiometer 41.
- indicating lamps 42, 43 and 44, 45 to show whether the fail-safe control and check ranges are passed during tightening of a screw joint.
- the torque signal is fed via input 32 to the A/D converter 33 which in turn is coupled to the memory 34.
- the torque signal is also fed to the threshold detector 40 which also accepts an input from the set-point potentiometer 41 so that an output signal is achieved when the torque threshold level is reached.
- This signal opens the gate 39 to let the angle pulses arrive through input 31 into counter 38 which also is connected with the memory 34.
- the computing unit 35 e.g. a microprocessor, can retrieve data stored in the memory 34 through the databus 36 by making a request through the address bus 37.
- the computing unit 35 has in its program memory (not shown) instructions and limit values stored in order to perform the mathematical functions on the torque and angle datas as they are generated by the torque transducer and angle encoder and stored in the memory.
- the indicating lamps 44 and 45 correspond to the indicating lamps 24 and 25 in the above described embodiment of FIG. 2. The functions obtained by the circuit shown in FIG. 2 can therefore also be performed by the unit shown in FIG. 3.
- An advantage of the unit shown in FIG. 3 is that it can, after the tightening has been finished, put check range limits on torque-angle relationship obtained from each tightening. This can be done by letting the computer generate a straight line from the threshold point to the final torque/angle coordinate or to any other torque-coordinate on the actual torque-angle curve. The slope of this generated line would generally differ from the nominal torque-angle curve as used in relation to the device according to FIG. 2, although the average of many in such a way generated lines would correspond to the nominal relationship.
- check-range limits are shown as straight lines, parallel to the average torque-rate line in FIG. 1. It is, however, obvious that the computing device 35, if sophisticated enough could generate any kind of piecewise linear or non-linear check range limits.
